If I were American and the government was proposing a 40% tax for renouncing citizenship, I would immediately buy whatever cheap-ass citizenship was available, even if it was Haiti. In Haiti’s case that is as long as I don’t have to travel there to get the actual papers/passport, but there are plenty of places that will give you one relatively easily.
Well, I’d be doing that now.
And leaving.
